It may also lead to limited possibilities in the U.S., such as working in adult ESL programs where only a bachelor's degree is required. It can serve as a foundation for teaching ESL in community colleges and universities in the U.S., but is not enough for working at those levels. Students who wish to work at those levels should expect to continue beyond the bachelor's degree to an M.A. in TESL. This degree is inappropriate for those who hope to teach English in k-12 schools in the United States, as it will not lead to a k-12 teaching license. Students who wish to obtain that credential should enroll in the B.S. in TESL, which is approved by the Minnesota Board of Teaching and has been accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP).
